Pexto SAMSON No. 8212 twelve inch swing brace with ball bearing chuckThe Peck, Stow & Wilcox Company made this SAMSON model brace.  It has a strong ball bearing chuck which will grip any shaped bit within its range of about 1/8 inch to 1/2 inch.  Note the concealed ratchet mechanism.  About 25% of the nickel plating remains, but there is a nice, dark patina of hard, black iron oxide to replace what was lost.  The mechanics are good and the rosewood handles are in perfect condition with a tung oil finish to replace whatever lacquer was once present.
